❤️ Beerbohm (cat) 🐥

"Beerbohm ( – 21 March 1995) was a cat that resided at the Gielgud Theatre in London. He was born in the theatre, which was then named the Globe, and was named after actor and theatre manager Herbert Beerbohm Tree. He became renowned for attacking props and wandering into the actors' dressing rooms. Beerbohm came to public attention when he wandered across the stage during a 1978 performance by Hinge and Bracket, a trick he repeated throughout his life. Beerbohm retired in 1991 and went to live with the theatre's master carpenter in Beckenham. After his death in March 1995 the news was carried in many national newspapers and he became the first (and so far only) cat to receive a front-page obituary in The Stage. Biography The Gielgud Theatre in 2011 Beerbohm was 20 years old when he died, meaning that he was born in 1974 or 1975. According to one writer, he was born in the Globe Theatre (later renamed the Gielgud Theatre after actor and director John Gielgud) in London's West End in the 1970s; however, his obituary in The Stage states that he "arrived at the Globe during the run of Donkey's Years in 1976". Theatres historically maintained cats on the premises as a means of controlling vermin, but their role increased over time as actors came to see them as good-luck charms and a means of reducing stress. Beerbohm, a tabby cat, was named after Herbert Beerbohm Tree, an actor and theatre manager. Beerbohm the cat soon gained a reputation for wandering into dressing rooms and attacking feathered hats and stuffed birds used as props. He came to public attention when he began a habit of wandering across the stage in the middle of productions. Beerbohm's first appearance was during a performance of the Hinge and Bracket Review in 1978. He is also said to have enjoyed entering the dressing rooms of Michael Gambon and Peter Bowles. He became known as one of the most famous of all theatre cats and counted Paul Eddington and Penelope Keith amongst his biggest fans. As a result of his popularity amongst actors he was mentioned several times on the BBC Radio programme Desert Island Discs. Beerbohm is said to have once been addicted to chocolate (a dependence he successfully overcame) and to have survived being run over by a car on the streets of Soho. He was said to have had a girlfriend at the Lyric Theatre whom he would rush off to see frequently. Beerbohm's career is said to be the longest of any modern-day theatre cat and lasted until his retirement in 1991, when he went to live with Tony Ramsey, the theatre's master carpenter, in Beckenham."Goodbye to carpenter", The Stage, 5 September 1991, p. 20.

❤️ Hylda Richards 🐥

"Hylda M. Richards (1898-?) was a Rhodesian writer. Best known for her controversial autobiographical narrative Next Year Will Be Better (1952), she also wrote humorous verse under the pseudonym T. Life Hylda Richards was born in London in 1898. After World War I, she and her husband struggled for eight years to farm fifty acres in Kent, before deciding to emigrate to homestead in Rhodesia. She sailed for Cape Town in July 1928, travelling on by land to Salisbury. The family trained for a year on a farm near Salisbury, before moving fifteen miles away to a farm of 2,500 uncultivated acres. For some time they were crippled by debt, and they only became financially secure in the late 1930s.Julia M. Wells, Quinine, Whisky, and SunHelmets: Amateur Medicine in British East and South-Central Africa, 1890-1939, MA thesis, Victoria University of Wellington, 2016, pp.5–7 Next Year Will Be Better chronicled their efforts at farming there. During the 1930s and 1940s Richards wrote humorous verse, under the pseudonym 'T', on everyday travails of the farming life. Annual collections of this verse "became something of a Rhodesian institution". A selection was published as Hurrah for the Life of a Farmer! (1958). For five weeks she also worked as temporary editor of The Weekly Advertiser, "a little weekly paper" in Salisbury. In 1974 Richards published a biography of the pioneer Dan Judson (1864-1942), a telegraphist who arrived in Rhodesia in 1893 and led one of the relief patrols to the Alice Mine at Mazoe.David William Kenrick, Pioneers and Progress: White Rhodesian Nation-Building, c.1964-1979, PhD Thesis, University of Oxford, pp.247–8.
